OpenAI rolls out "High Input Fidelity" for more precise image editing
OpenAI has upgraded its image editing API with a feature called "High Input Fidelity," designed to preserve fine details like faces, logos, and other intricate elements during edits. Users can now make targeted changes to specific features such as facial expressions, clothing, or objects without affecting the rest of the image. According to the company, adding or removing individual objects now works more reliably as well. According to OpenAI staff, the feature is already live in ChatGPT and Sora.
We've improved image generation in the API. Editing with faces, logos, and fine-grained details is now much higher fidelity with features preserved. ?
